Athletic Bilbao vs Valencia Prediction & Betting Tips - LaLiga
by Kennedy Kechula in LaLiga Predictions
Two sides with tough starts to the season will meet this Wednesday when Athletic Bilbao hosts Valencia in La Liga. Both are seeking first wins of the season, and are separated by just a point after two rounds. Read on for our prediction for this match.
Hosts Athletic have so far not shown flashes of their successful 2023/24 campaign. Los Leones started off with a 1-1 draw at home to Getafe before falling 2-1 to Barcelona. Oihan Sancet’s penalty temporarily raised hopes that they could shock Barcelona who had gone ahead through Lamine Yamal.
However, the Basque side’s hopes were dashed when Robert Lewandowski grabbed a 75th minute winner. Athletic will now return home hoping for a first win in three against Valencia. Their ambitions will be boosted by a 19-game unbeaten league run at home.
Valencia are one of two teams without a point after two matches. They opened their season with a 2-1 loss at home to Barcelona. That was followed by a 3-1 away loss at Celta Vigo.
A second straight away game doesn’t promise things will get easier for Valencia. It could get even tougher with Villarreal and Atletico Madrid lined up next. Ruben Baraja must just get his charges to winning ways early enough.
They beat Athletic in the last meeting, winning 1-0 at home but that is their only victory in this fixture in the last six meetings. Los Che haven't won away to Athletic in their last six visits and this further complicates matters.
Their own away form in La Liga doesn’t look good, Valencia being winless in the last four matches.
